This cat (Mort) is available from a local shelter and while he does probably look like that because of the malnutrition he is also perfect in every way. If you're in Cwmbran or nearby and could give him a home look up All Creatures Great And Small. He sounds like a pain in the ass (affectionate).

Large part of UK’s water network was installed 130 to 150 years ago. Thames Water infrastructure has average age of 79 years; industry average 56 yrs. 40% of TW assets are over 100 years old. Its IT systems date back to the 1980s. Since privatisation, water companies paid £88.4bn in dividends.

It just keeps on coming… Farage struck deal to return as leader long before Sunak called surprise 2024 vote, so his claim that he wasn’t involved in politics when he got his £5million “gift” is, of course, another grubby lie. The man is garbage. Grifting, lying, cheating garbage. (Sunday Times)
Farage struck deal to return as leader long before election
Reform chief had insisted he was not involved in politics until Sunak called surprise 2024 vote

Extracts;

Nigel Farage struck a secret deal to return as Reform UK leader months before the general election.
Farage negotiated the pact with Richard Tice, then the leader, in March and April 2024. George Cottrell, the convicted fraudster who had been secretly bankrolling Farage, supervised the discussions.
Under the terms of the deal, Reform agreed to repay or write off more than £1 million in outstand ing loans it had taken from Tice's company upon Farage becoming leader.
The deal was first presented by Farage and Cottrell to the party's treasurer in mid-May. Its existence undermines the Reform leader's claim that he had no intention until June 2024 of returning to politics. Farage has used this to defend his failure to declare
donations made to him in the year before he was elected as an MP, which triggered two parliamentary investigations.
Last night, Reform sources
acknowledged the existence of the deal but insisted it had been drafted for if, not when, Farage became leader. Asked why he would have signed such an agreement if he had no intention of returning as leader, they said it kept his options open. They said Farage had assumed he would focus his energies on campaigning for Donald Trump in that year's US presidential election.
Farage has claimed repeatedly that he did not need to declare a £5 million gift from the crypto--billionaire Christopher Harborne or in-kind benefits from Cottrell, as he was a media personality at the time. MPs must declare any benefit in any way connected to their
"political activities" received in the 12 months before their election.
He told the "anti-woke" Trigger-nometry podcast last month: "At that period of my life, from 2021 to the third of June 2024, I was a broadcaster… I was somebody that promoted financial market products, I was an influencer, I wasn't in politics."

Is welfare spending ''out of control''? It's estimated to be 11.1 per cent of GDP this financial year. That's just 1.1 per cent of GDP higher than in 2007-08, and total welfare spending has actually fallen by 0.9 per cent of GDP since 2012-13 ⤵️

In Budget week, I am afraid we have to talk about Brexit. A new report from economists at the BoE, Kings College and others puts the hit to our economy at 6 to 8% of of UK GDP. That equates to circa £66billion in lost tax revenue. That's why we have to go further and faster on the UK/EU reset.

A video claims the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine contains “cancer-causing SV40”. This isn’t correct. The vaccine doesn’t contain the SV40 monkey virus, which can induce cancer in animals. It uses a fragment of SV40’s DNA sequence, which doesn’t cause cancer.
